Haha. I have no idea what went wrong. I'm still clicking the buttons. I don't have to go super heavy on anyone. With those guys, I can afford JT and Rory...I think.

Cash Lineup
Rory, Cantlay, Day, Kuchar, Kisner, Sabbatini

So i don't have a golf model as of yet. Just started scraping data and don't really have a good plan on how I'm going to do it, but for you that do, I have the questions, how is Straka +143 to Schwab (and only -108 to poulter)? And how is a guy (Jeff Hart) that is lucky to hit driver 250 a -201 favorite over anyone?

Finau misses a 4 ft put for birdie and follows it up by missing a 7 footer for birdie. Amazing

Guess who started with a bogey. Kuchar

Yes, I have a lot of Kuchar this week, but it's fine since I have a ton of Day.

I got an offer from DK about entering the milli, so I used crowns (11k) and entered (receiving 5k crowns). Guess whose not in that lineup? Kuchar.

JT (16%)
Rory (17.5%)
English (13.5)
Kisner (4)
Sabbatini (0.74)
Poston (0.79)

Maybe because they can read a weather report and I can’t.

I went with assumption of 25mph gusts thursday pm vs 15 mph gusts on friday pm and assigned a 7.8% bonus to those who got Thursday AM tee times

will run again tomorrow because this on it's own is pretty meaningless and assuming it'll likely cancel back out tomorrow


just comparing the avg rank of am/pm waves of my ranking before and after weather adjustment as well as just pure results

then i sub grouped into my top 100 or not because i don't even begin to attempt caring whether or not someone ranked 128 is actually better than someone ranked 152 because for my own dfs purposes it's irrelevant

I'm confident it's still physcologically easier to get off to a good start and maintain it, I did weigh this when I went for Cantlay / Schauffele

But the scorecard I found says 250, which isn’t that insane considering it won’t play that long every day. I’d have to check a SG table but I’d imagine at 250 from a tee the expected score is in the 3.3-3.4 range. 3.7 would be in line with a 330-360 yard par 4 probably.

We were close, El Sueno. 3.423

Solid point, not sure if I should rejoice that maybe a needless overreaction is pointless but possibly effective anyway from natural am/pm splits for to green difficulty or be upset that I'll never be able to truly know.

But you got me thinking about scraping am Thursday starts historical performance. Could be something there because the snowball effect is real.

You could also probably find a metric for players who tend to bounce back strong, vs players (like Hatton) who seem to throw in the towel after a bad start. Not really sure how to go about that, but definitely something to think about.

testing a "ffff these winds are bad and bogeying the first hole puts me at +4 so f it" thesis in my model

would legit take the opposite side of a lot of these if it were day one

like Steele is in line to make the cut and zero chance schwartzel can make it so he's not going to have any real motivation other than plugging along

You may not know, but Kuchar will miss the cut. Not the best finish, bogey on 3 of the last 4.

I've had 0% Casey exposure either way in anything all week. Seems like he is back to being his usual awesome at golf but will fall apart the moment the stakes get high self.

Got a minimum of 5 and mostly 6 through on DK like everyone else with a pulse there. So many $30 min cashes!

same same, most my lines have 5/6 or 6/6

disapointed my cash was "only 5/6" and then took a look and there are more 6/6 lines than those with 4/6 or worse so very likely need at least 2/6 top 10 finishes now just to break even

ACR book giving me fits so hard to review prior bets to see just how much i suck at betting h2hs and going to run yesterdays weather splits to get the entire picture for some more random noise to pretend is actionable and lose more money on going forward
